Re: DID Press Release Testimonials

All,

The members of the Digital Credentials Consortium (DCC,
http://dcconsortium.org/)—comprising 12 international universities—are
working together to develop new digital systems for academic credentials.
The DCC approach focuses on open standards, open processes, and developing
open source software to ensure learner agency in the use of their digital
credentials. One of the key components of these approaches is using the W3C
Decentralized Identifiers (DIDs) specification so that learners and issuers
can securely associate themselves with their credentials. The DCC has
chosen to implement DIDs along with W3C Verifiable Credentials to enable an
interoperable, verifiable, and more trustworthy exchange of digital
academic credentials.

On behalf of DCC,
